Hello everyone. I have a friend who's been in a different state for a while and he says that somehow being away from home has drained most of his faith and he's starting to just not care about Christianity as a result (he's not reading his Bible, listening to his worship music, praying or anything).
I'd appreciate it if everyone kept him in your prayers. Thank you.

I'll pray for him but I think he may need a little gentle Christian rebuking.Vash wrote:Hello everyone.

Update:
Firstly, thank you FFC, and anyone else who prayed. I spoke to my friend for the first time in two weeks a couple of days ago and he's more faithful than ever now. In fact, after a long talk, he started helping me with some struggles I'm going through now too.
Thank you very much to everyone, again. I really appreciate it.

It always best to have someone nearby who in person you can talk and pray with.
Hope it is a healthy and growing relationship for both of you.
